In the years of ancient traders

After communicating well with Song Shu, Yin Heng patted Anan's head, got a blank stare, and left contentedly.

Anan was driven out to work by Song Shu, so he had to be quiet and think about the expansion plan of Zhifang.

If it is true as Yin Heng said, Song Ji Paper Factory will replace Yi'an Paper Factory and become the only paper supplier in Yicheng Qizhou, and the profits will be immeasurable.Looking at the momentum of the Yin family, it is absolutely impossible for them to be satisfied with the name of a righteous envoy.

If his business territory can be expanded along with their occupation of new land... Song Shu sketched out this possibility in his mind, but he was frightened in the end.

With such a large scale of business, it can really be said that a country is as rich as an enemy.

Leave that alone.

He has never done such a big thing in his two lifetimes combined, so it is better to think less about subtleties, lest he start to panic before doing it.

If you have time to think wildly, it is better to think about how to spread his paper mill business in Yicheng Qizhou.

Song Shu came out of the reception room and found Yan Zhuo directly.

"Show me the map." For the convenience of traveling, Yan Zhuo got a map of Jia Dynasty. Although the terrain is not very clear, there are all the official roads of the prefectures and counties that should be there.

Yan Zhuo gave him the map, and Song Shu studied it carefully.

"Silang, Mr. Yin came just now, but what did you discuss with you?" Yan Zhuo asked.The relationship between Song Anan and Yin Heng has been widely known. Yan Zhuo was stared at by Song Anan a few times, and he was already a bit shadowed. a lot of.

"Well, I talked about something." Song Shu said vaguely, "Come and see this, if we want to fully expand our paper workshop business in Yicheng Qizhou, how many workshops do we need?"

Song Shu's finger drew a circle on the map, which just happened to circle into Yicheng Qizhou.

"Fully rolled out?" Yan Zhuo frowned, "Yicheng has seven prefectures in total. In addition to the prefectures and cities, there are also subordinate counties. Hengzhou alone has more than a dozen subordinate counties, and Cangzhou has thirty or so. All these county and state capitals have workshops? This is impossible."

Yan Zhuo has been traveling abroad for a long time, and he is much more familiar with the foreign situation than Song Shu. Although the road of this generation is not as rough and difficult as in Shu, it is not easy. Go to many workshops.As it is now, it will definitely not work if Hengzhou City, Datu County, and Yuexing City rely on the workshops in Xianghe Village for their supplies.

"How?" Song Shu asked.

"Look, there are mountains from here to here, not high but it takes a lot of time. There is a river here. The river is not wide but the current is very fast. We are not a flat plain here, and there are no canals. It is still very inconvenient to transport goods. " Yan Zhuo said.

Song Shu nodded, he was not familiar with the terrain here, and it was really not easy to hear what Yan Zhuo said.

"It's not just freight, you want to open so many workshops and shops at the same time, can you rent or buy them, and do you have enough money?" Yan Zhuo asked again.Before he met Song Shu, he knew nothing about business, but these days, he helped Song Shu with many things, and he knew how much these workshops cost.

"A shop costs at least [-] to [-] yuan. If it's in a prosperous area, [-] yuan won't be enough. A paper-making workshop is even more expensive. Your business can make money every year, but it can't stand the cost." " Yan Zhuo said again.

Freight transportation is inconvenient. We can build more workshops and hire more porters. It’s all about money anyway.

But if there is no money and silk in hand, then all these blueprints are empty.

"Money and silk is a trivial matter." Song Shu said after pondering for a moment.

"Do you have a solution?" Yan Zhuo asked quickly.

"There are some ways. You are familiar with Yicheng Qizhou. If you have time, let me see how many workshops and shops are needed if it is to be fully rolled out." Song Shu said.

Yan Zhuo already had some ideas, so he agreed on the spot, and after going back to deliberate, he can come up with a plan.

"What exactly is the method of raising money you mentioned just now?" Yan Zhuo asked again, "By the way, I have finished the test paper you gave me last time. How many questions are there..."

Song Shu Fu forehead...here again.

"Today's Song Ji auction, are you going?"

At the newly opened topping soup cake stall in Hengzhou City, a chai lang put down his pole and asked the man at the same table.

"Of course I have to go. You see, I only carried a barrel of oil to sell today, isn't it just to get out of the city early?" said the oil seller at the same table.

Although Songji Workshop can deliver oil, it only accepts orders for the whole pot. If you want to buy a small order, you can only go out of the city to their workshop.Many people didn't want to take these roads, so many oil sellers came into being. They bought oil from Song Ji, and then carried it to the city to sell it, and they could earn some small profits.

"Guest officer, your soup cakes are here!" The stall owner personally served two bowls of hot soup cakes with toppings, and said, "Guest officer, I'm sorry, we are going to the Songji auction today, can you eat quickly? Otherwise, you won’t be able to catch up.”

"No problem, we're going too!" The firewood seller and the oil seller said in unison.

Later, when someone wanted to sit down, they were all declined by the stall owner.He neatly put away the stall cart, and when the two of them finished eating, they even put away the tables, chairs and benches.His house was not far away, so he put everything away quickly, took off his apron and went out of the city.

On the way to the outside of the city, in addition to walking like this, there are also those who ride mules, horses, or sedan chairs.

Song Shu's auction room has already been set up.As soon as the buyers arrive at the venue, there is a special person in charge of signing in, receiving licenses and explaining the rules, so although there are many people coming, it is not chaotic.

Because he didn't know who would come, Song Shu put all the most common stools, all of which were taken from Songji restaurants or hot pot restaurants.It doesn't matter whether the rich households or rural households come, first come first choose the location, there is no preferential treatment.

The gentleman who is used to being pampered and pampered immediately wants to get angry when he sees this scene.But another look, around the auction house, there are a dozen or so soldiers in neat military uniforms patrolling.Immediately wilted.

He is a frail scholar, how dare he go against the soldiers?

Those ten people belonged to Wu Shichang's team, and Song Shu specially asked them to wear military uniforms to work today before they left work yesterday.

Wu Shichang was still a little confused at first, but after seeing today's scene, he understood.If it weren't for them wandering around in military uniforms and so many people gathered together, it would be no wonder that Song Silang didn't give preferential treatment to rich households and big families, and wouldn't cause trouble.

Thinking of this, Wu Shichang's face darkened, trying to make himself look more stern and selfless.

"Yin San!" Shen Qing patted Song Anan's shoulder, "Find me a good seat?"

Last time he failed to open a gambling house, he was ashamed. This time, he must show those who laugh at him that he can make money in the sweet potato business.

It's a pity that he didn't expect the auction to be so grand, it came late, and all the good positions were taken away.

"No." Song Anan was merciless.

"Yin San, you are not enough friends!" Shen Qing shouted at his back.Song Anan didn't even bother, he didn't have a place to stand, where could he find a place for him?

"Cut." Shen Qing finally found a corner seat to sit down, and the servant who came with him could only obediently stand by the side, because the surroundings were full.

There were many people, Shen Qing looked around.

Before he came, he was thinking of overwhelming the audience and taking all Song Ji's sweet potatoes, but now it seems impossible.

It seems that all the rich and poor in the city are concentrated here.

The seventh position from the left in the third row is shopkeeper Tang of Taimao Building.In the middle of the two rows in front of him is Fukangyuan's shopkeeper Dou.Even in a place like Huaxin Pavilion, two gorgeous girls were photographed to participate.Besides, the Xie family and other wealthy families also sent people here, and Shen Qing was quite familiar with them, so he knew it at a glance.

It's over, it's over.

Shen Qing wailed in his heart.

At the same time, other firms and extended families are also keeping an eye on each other.

The farmers and hawkers in the field have long been ignored by them. These people are thinking about how to force each other to buy as many sweet potatoes as possible.You must know that the crop of sweet potatoes is still very limited, and it is only the second year of discovery, and it will not be too popular in five years. If there are more here, there will be less for others, and I can make a lot of money.

When these people were planning, Song Shu also arrived at the scene.

The scene was crowded with people, which was beyond his expectation.He took a quick glance and recognized several big families, as well as shopkeepers he had seen before.Song Shu thought for a while, and called Pang Liulang: "You let someone pass on a new rule. In today's auction, you can only buy two sets of lots per lot."

"What?!" Unbelievable roars followed one after another.

Someone even sent his underlings back to the city to report to the owner behind him.

Song Ji's Sweet Potato Auction has a limited auction!So stupid, so stupid!Those rich merchants shook their heads.

Farmers and hawkers with little money seem to have seen the first ray of dawn in the morning.

They thought they couldn't buy it today!

Some of those farmers and hawkers are in the city, and some are in the nearby countryside.Since they found out about the auction of sweet potatoes, they found out all the money in the family and planned to buy a few leftover seeds.

But who would have thought that the wealthy households in the city would come out in force, and seeing that posture, they had no intention of letting them stay.

Originally, these people thought that they would definitely have no chance, but Song Silang's new regulation was really timely, as if it was a shot in the arm and gave them hope again.

"The first group of lots!" Pang Liulang said loudly, just like the time in Xianghe Village, immediately a guy spread his voice neatly.

This time Song Shu brought out a total of more than 100 catties of sweet potatoes, some big and some small, and made 62 groups of lots by category.

Compared with the people who came this time, it was pitifully small, but he didn't want to take more.He still loves French fries and vermicelli more than selling grain seeds.

Hengzhou City is a big city after all, and the price in this auction was even higher than that in Xianghe Village.

Because of the purchase restriction order, some farmers and hawkers snatched a few groups of fish that slipped through the net, but more of them were still in the hands of rich households. It was just because of the purchase restriction that no one could eat them all. Evenly.

Farmers or wealthy households are fine, with such an even distribution, there is no way to monopolize.

Song Shu is very satisfied with this result. He will sell sweet potato vermicelli in the future. It is definitely not enough to grow sweet potato vermicelli at home. If each family grows a little, he can collect some from every household, and the price will be much more cost-effective. .

"Song Silang, with your purchase restriction, the price can't be raised, so it's not worth it." After the auction, the shopkeeper Tang of Taimao Building told Song Shu.

Song Shu smiled, and took out an invitation card from his arms: "This sweet potato is just a small business. If shopkeeper Tang wants to find a big business, the road show of Song Ji Zhifang will be held at the hot pot restaurant in two days. To be rewarded."

"Roadshow?" Monk Zhang Er, shopkeeper of Tang, was puzzled. He knew about Zhifang, and the hot pot restaurant, but what was this roadshow?

"Treasurer Tang is here, I promise, you will be interested." Song Shu said.

At the same time, stores such as Fukangyuan, Huaxinge, and Xinzhenghe, big families such as the Shen family and the Xie family, and even Wang Daqian, Yang Jian and others in Datu County all received roadshow invitations from Song Ji .
